See this girl? She has completed 2
weeks of Kindergarten!
We are now back in Banyo after 2
fun-filled weeks at the Sunlight Christian Academy in Bamenda,
Cameroon. SCA is a missionary homeschool co-op. We meet together
twice a year- rainy season and dry season. There were some challenges
for Charlie during SCA- she was the youngest one which meant some
things were over her head or too difficult- like tennis. She could
hardly hold up the racket! This was also her first time having to sit
still in a “classroom” for an extended period of time. But
overall she did well and had a lot of fun!
She played a ton! The resource room has
a lot of toys- Barbies were a big hit with all of the kids which was
perfect for Charlie!
There was a twins day and a crazy hair
day!
They did art projects and learned about
photography!
She even did the Presidential Fitness
Test and almost got the Presidential Award for six-year-olds (there
is not a category for five-year-olds). She ran a ¼ mile!
She also had daily devotions, music
class, language arts, math, and so much more! It was a full and fun 2
weeks and this week we had a break because one of the best things
about homeschool is that you can take a break whenever you want (or
need to because your mom has to clean and unpack)! Homeschool at home
will start Monday!

ReplyDeleteWhat fun to see what your life is like in Banyo, Charlie. I can see that you have lots of friends as well as fun and interesting activities. I'm looking forward to hearing you read to Grandma Mary and beat her in tennis when you are next in Scottsdale. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteYou ran a 1/4 mile? That's awesome! It sounds like you had a lot of fun learning new things at the co-op. I can't wait to hear about all the new things you learn and the adventures you have. I miss your smile at church!
